C Correct answer
Explanation

Personality development is influenced by both genetic inheritance (nature) and environmental influences (nurture). Genetic factors provide the baseline predispositions, temperament, and potential, while environment (family, culture, experiences, education) shapes how these traits are expressed. The nature vs. nurture debate has largely resolved to recognize both play essential roles in personality formation.
